Prince Charles has created his own perfume.
Prince Charles of Wales, 73, has made another territorial conquest. The future heir to the crown has released a perfume with the British perfume company Penhaligon.
The fragrance, called Highgrove Bouquet, was created in collaboration with the prince. On the Highgrove website it is said that the perfume is a tribute to Charles and the Duchess Camilla’s for the “wonderfully fragrant summers” of the homestead, Highgrove Gardens.

A 100 milliliter bottle costs 152 pounds, or about 180 euros. Ten percent of the perfume’s proceeds go to The Prince’s Foundation. Charles’s foundation supports education and hobby activities.
Prince Charles has been a fan of gardening since childhood. He owns many gardens around Britain. The most famous of these is the garden of Highgrove House in the Prince’s estate in Gloucestershire.
The garden at Highgrove House has been open to the public at selected times during the summer for the past 25 years. Admission ticket proceeds are donated to charity.
